This study aimed to examine the mediating role of self-efficacy dimensions in the relationship family communication pattern and religious orientation with academic buoyancy. In this study, 392 students (205 females and 187 males) of a high school located in Poldokhtar city that were chosen by multi-stage random cluster sampling method. Participants fill out the child version of the revised family communication patterns scale, religious orientation scale, self-efficacy dimensions’ scale and academic buoyancy scale. All the tools enjoyed appropriate validity and reliability. Path analysis (PA) results showed that the conversation communication pattern and intrinsic orientation of religious has direct and indirectly led to more academic buoyancy scale through self-efficacy dimensions. Accordingly, it can be stated that the self-efficacy dimensions have played a mediatory role between conversation communication pattern and intrinsic orientation of religious with academic buoyancy. These finding emphasize the role of quality of family communications and religious orientations in promoting of self-efficacy to increase student academic buoyancy.

The present paper aims to study the influence of the perception of family communication patterns (including conversation and conformity orientations) as well as structure of the class (including tasks, meticulous assessment, emphasis on evaluation authority) onacademic buoyancy, and investigate the mediatory role of selfefficacy dimensions therein. Using multi-stage random cluster sampling method, ٣٣٧ subjects (١٧٦ females and ١٦١ males) were selected from among high school students in the city of Mehriz. The research instruments included a version of the Revised Family Communication Pattern (١٩٩٧), the Class Structure Questionnaire (٢٠٠١), a version of self-efficacy dimensions (٢٠٠١), and the Academic Buoyancy Questionnaire (١٣٩١). Cronbach’s alpha coefficient was used to test the instruments’ reliability, and their validity was tested by using factor analysis and internal consistency methods. The instruments proved to be reliable and valid. The research data was analyzed using path analysis method with simultaneous regression as suggested by Baron and Kenny (١٩٨٦). In general, the results indicated that some dimensions of family communication patterns and class structure can directly predict the academic buoyancy. Moreover, some dimensions of family communication patterns and class structure directly predict selfefficacy''s dimensions. Finally, after calculating the obtained ١.

The results of the study were discussed with regard to previous studies and some suggestions were made for further research in the field.
